I waited a couple of weeks, but that was fine - I didn’t need sooner. The time, 7pm, was very convenient for me.

Suggested improvements

It wasn't urgent when I made the appointment to see my familiar GP and so I was happy with the appointment date I was given. The GP was caring and efficient in discussing a change in my medication and organising a referral for hand surgery.

Suggested improvements
Some sort of audio ping signal when the TV displays your name

Appointment 12.06.2024 . At first had difficulty trying to get a telephone appointment as none were available till July . . A face to face appointment became available as there was a cancellation. [name removed] [name removed] was professional, empathetic and approachable. This was in complete contrast to my telephone appointment with Dr [name removed] who never even asked how I was after back surgery and a heart attack. His parting comment was “he had a full work load “” I will so so more about his lack of empathy and kindness.

Suggested improvements
Training for doctors in empathy and compassion to said doctor.
